    A Collector's View - The SMLE Short Magazine Lee Enfield 1903-1989. It is 300 8.5x11 inch pages with 1,000+ photo’s, most in color, and each book is serial-numbered.  Covering the SMLE from 1903 to the end of production in India in 1989 it looks at how each model differs and manufacturer differences from a collecting point of view along with the major accessories that could be attached to the rifle. For the record this is not a moneymaker, I hope just to break even, eventually, at $80/book plus shipping.  In the USA shipping is $5.00 for media mail.  I will accept PayPal, Zelle, MO and good old checks (and cash if you want to stop by for a tour!).  CLICK BANNER to send me a PM for International pricing and shipping. Manufacturer of various vintage rifle scopes for the 1903 such as our M73G4 (reproduction of the Weaver 330C) and Malcolm 8X Gen II (Unertl reproduction). Several of our scopes are used in the CMP Vintage Sniper competition on top of 1903 rifles. Brian Dick ...

    I remember my first trip to Mt.Washington New Hampshire(1988) and decided I would ride with no helmet as law permitted. I have to hand it to open face riders,you are tough as nails . After being pelted with bugs,stones and dust I was thankful for the laws in Canadaicon at that moment. The freedom to choose is where the beauty lies. I also agree, more sneaky by the day!!!

    Nothing to add regarding tanks, but I like Evan Williams single barrel bourbon.

    Actually I dispise uneccessary wars. Love the history.I was merely thinking of our brave men and women working along side our allies in conflict and hoping we all had the same tools to simplify things. But since this discussion has taken a turn for the better and we are talking about our favourite spirits that we enjoy when we are in the forum. Jameson whiskey for me. Hense some of the posts LOL.

    I used to prefer Wild Turkeyicon until many liquor stores here in Canadaicon stopped carrying it. Then it was Jim Beam...or Cuervo Gold sometimes. Always just as was, no additives. Thing was, I would do that all day long, all weekend long...you see where this is going? Eventually I stopped all together, since '97...
    Regards, Jim

    You guys better make a trip to the Knob Creek show in April. If you're bourbon drinkers, there are many small distilleries on the "bourbon corridor", (including a brand called "Knob Creek), that are so much better than the big brand names. Come and talk Enfields and Brens then go back to your motel room with a nice bottle of the lesser known, excellent bourbon purchased locally. I promise you'll need a good drink after a Saturday at "the creek". Especially if you stay for the night shoot! There are a few on here that know what I'm talking about. Eh Doug?

    Splicenut, send me a PM or email. Pretty sure we live within 40 miles of each other.
